I missed alot of the 3rd quarter because i was too busy watching the NFL games but how did we let them come back and almost lose the game? I'm guessing it was either poor defense by us or amazing offense by the magic.

Our perimeter defense was GOD AWFUL. That is why. The magic hit a bunch of 3's and outside shots.

Yeah, i figured as much. A few key offensive rebounds might have saved the game but it wouldn't have even been that close if it weren't for the defense breaking down. Also great defense down the stretch saved us the game too. We clearly turned it up a notch on D and got some key stops as well.

I cant wait for bradley to come back so we can have someone who can STAY in front of their man..plus his defense is contagious

Yup, we're really missing bradley on defense. Its almost dec. He should be back soon.

Have they said anything recently about his recovery? Last I heard he was "ahead of schedule" for his mid-December return (this was around mid-October).

That was the last thing i heard as well. I would think if he was ahead of schedule he should be ready to come back any day now. At the very latest he should be returning in about 3weeks minus any setbacks.
